Scx6 My Lousy Opinion

[@Antoniosp10]

In my country the SCX6 is “Pay expensive and play alone”… But it is cool.

[@slobaru7094]

mine goes to parties lol. kids of all ages love riding it but hate when i tell them they cant drive it.

[@shuster1921]

I drive mine to work, I get there late a lot but the insurance is really cheap,,,

[@slobaru7094]

really like your rundown on the scx6, wish this was out when i was looking at getting one 😂. now im all in over $2,600 in 1 rc truck (and not done) lol. they are amazing rcs, just worth more around $799.99 rtr for the parts it comes with, not $1099.99.

[@CRAZYBUILD349]

just picked the honcho for $829 amain hobbies, it saved enuff to get a servo,!! Shift 1/5 servo,only one avabile

[@brokennibrc1045]

Well, remember mine was a preorder, so I got hosed on the price, really. 😀 Nowadays you can get them a bit cheaper, and even a better deal used

[@PatrickFugate-qk7ev]

I bought mine a couple of weeks b4 Christmas..$825.00…I always wait for this stuff to go on sale..Just have to b patient..

[@JasonGunn418]

I crawled mine in dirt and mud. Never had any issues with steering or going up and over dirt hills. I just oversized all the accessories parts for the Scx3, and 3D printed them for my scx6. Even the front bumper with the two loop.

Just bought a honcho SCX6 and wanted to see what other people were doing with it. Great video sir. You did really interesting stuff to it. And yeah the servo gives a lot to desire. But one thing I would like to see is how you wired your steering servo to the additional battery separate from the esc/motor battery. you can make a short video and I would watch it. You gained a new subscriber. Cheers

[@brokennibrc1045]

Thanks 👍 The wiring is rather simple, I just extended the power leads on the servo itself, but yeah, I'll try to put up a quick little video real soon.

[@robpracht9303]

It is word the cash.. Some diy and a better servo and you are good.. And more upgrades always make it better..

[@sheldons4796]

Stumbled upon this channel and for the first video ive seen, Im hooked. Definitely sub worthy. Ive been looking at the scx6 for some time now and been hesitant because of the price. My lhs both the jeep and honcho are 1499.00 cdn rtr. Ive got 1/10, 1/18 and 1/24 crawlers but the large scale seems to interest me more. I really enjoyed the real life review and the explanations are awesome. Keep up the great vids.

[@curtkelsey2136]

I really like your videos and the real-world view on the cars.

Thats Quite the review on the JLU SCX6 Jeep... So anyways ive just ordered the Trail Honcho Tan on sale HH and have noted that everyone is downing the Servo but I don't think any of them tried to Install a 6 amp/10 amp burst BEC to the Spectrum rated 6-8.4 volts for more power... Thats also been ordered. I also have seen enough Video's to understand the Foam inserts are really super soft for the weight of the stock configuration so I've got a set of Injora Dual Stage foam's coming too. Im learning as much as possible before I tear the truck apart for repairs or go $500+ on simple upgrades wheels, tires, servo's and chassis parts, however I'm almost certain that panhard mount can be braced with aome creative modeling, which Joe at Exocaged RC has done the double sheer lower brace but I'm thinking i can also do it for the top?? I'm really excited to get started on the SCX6 Trail Honcho mods and will try to do a video on what I've done and plan on doing as i continue to enjoy this Mammoth RC Machine... ✌🤠👍 HFLPRCing =Having Fun Laughing Playing and RCing 👍😎👍 AOAH =Association of Addicted Hobbiest 🙏 SSPH =Stay Safe and Play Healthy My Friend 🎊💯🎊

[@brokennibrc1045]

Yes, you can DIY a lot of these mods yourself, but you can find a cheap shock/panhard mounts on Amazon, and can save you a little hassle in my opinion. Main thing is to have fun doing it!

[@LRCR]

@@brokennibrc1045 Yes Sir, I've been looking at the aluminum shock tower's and found some budget friendly one's 👍😎👍 AOAH 🏁💯🏁

[@rcarty419]

They are amazing and super fun!! Extremely capable. But mine sits……I go to my 1/10 1/18 I use few times a week….scx6 few times a year lol. Partially they are expensive to upgrade. Someday I’ll lower it and put it on some lcg chasis!

[@brokennibrc1045]

Been driving mine quite a lot this spring, great for lakeside hikes with a lot of sand, and perfect for snow runs! It comes with me to every group run, even with my 10th scale stuff

[@bikeracr]

very informative vid enjoyed it thank you.

[@volvospede]

That ”pitman arm” is actually panhard rod.

[@CowboyRc743]

I have 3 1:10 scale trucks, 9 trucks total. I just got back into rc after becoming unable to work again. I want one of these, just worried that I won't drive anything else.

[@slobaru7094]

i use small tiedown straps around the rear axle and wear it like a backpack when i do break it.

[@boduke9428]

My 8s Outcast EXB is my only car that makes my SCX-6 feel easy to lug around.

[@slobaru7094]

spektrum is not a good brand, but my scx6 is still rockin factory esc/motor after 6 months of missouri river running. the power button failed so i had to cut the power and ground for the switch out of the wiring loom and wire a waterproof switch in, but left the other comminication wires on to still have tuning functions with the factory power button. factory spektrum servo was a total joke. NSDRS-2500 V2 went in in less than a month. factory servo works great in my 1/5 scale boat though. shocks are really nice, dont leak down. panhard bar mounts need replaced asap with aluminum, same with the bar thanks to axials great rod end design there.

[@ShadeTree_RC]

nice rig man....200th subscriber btw 😁😁

[@brokennibrc1045]

Sweet! Thanks 🙂

[@vb9300]

Im glad you have faith in Vitavon, they ripped me off 208.00.

[@keldonator]

How so?

[@vb9300]

@@keldonator bought a set of axle housings. The upper link mount broke 5 mins of use. Vitavon doesnt sell the bolt on replacement part and their customer service kept flagging my emails as spam. Never got the situation resolved so i ended up eating the 200.

[@scottbeer385]

So a half inch of 5/16 tube drops it a half inch but how does the shock handle it still works well as long as no big jumps?

[@brokennibrc1045]

Yup, handles just fine. It's not enough where it constantly bottoms out, your basically just restricting bottom travel. I also put a heavier shock fluid in there just to slow the shock down just a bit. Not really jumping ravines with this thing.🙂

[@DanBrando]

Nice vid

[@roosterrc6519]

Man that was lousy,lousy opinion show 😅
